Summary

Elyse Armani is a wealthy Swiss banker who seemingly has everything she could ever want. But behind her veil of success and fortune lurks a dangerous woman struggling to contain her violent fantasies. While staying at a fancy New York City hotel during a business trip, she meets bellhop Placido Domina, twenty years younger and desperate to find true love. They form a romantic relationship, but can Elyse keep her violent tendencies hidden from Placido as she inches closer to the tipping point?

I would compare this film to "American Psycho", but with a romance as the main plot.

An archeologist survives a plane crash on his way to Egypt, only to find himself in the middle of a nuclear missile crisis.

The world of Bomb squad guru and tokemaster Chase Malachi has always been a bit surreal. but nothing can prepare him for the outlandish journey that begins with a phone call at work ,researching an improvised microwave bomb, and getting stoned when, his partner DEVON calls him about a mysterious device on a running timer found in an office building.
He gets there to find a massive conglomeration of circuitry harvested from the electronic devices in the building, everything about it defies description. nothing he does stop the timer, yet there are no explosives present, none can be found in the building.
When the "bomb" goes off it's not with explosive force, but with a decaying and disintegrating of the entire world, indeed the universe, Chase and Devon included.
then the story appears to reboot, in what turns out to be a slightly different parallel reality, as Chase again encounters the device, this time with a growing sense of deja-vu about the thing, which is now larger, and more evolved in its electronic chaos.
Chase tries different methods this time, yet still the timer counts down to zero, and we see a more bigger, more cosmic look at the disintegration of the universeAs
As Chase is "reincarnated" repeatedly, each time, his memories of other time-lines where he tried to disarm the "bomb" become more solid, a girl named Faith, an alien in human form sent to help him understand the bomb, and an interdimensional parasite known as the Metaphage, who thrive on on the very law of entropy that the bomb uses to destroy us, will invade the planet, spreading rapidly through multitudes of human bodies in which they can only survive for a short period of time To hunt down Chase, Devon and Faith.
Every time they encounter the device it's a bigger, more advanced, and more bizzare. As it grows it causes a phenomenon called graviton psychosis, anyone near the bomb exhibits disturbing suicidal and homicidal behavior, and ironically enough the psychosis is linked to cannabinoid receptors, Chase and Devon are only able to interact with the device unaffected because the THC is acting as an antidote.
but It's temporary. graviton psychosis gets worse every time, the Metaphage come at him faster every time. If he doesn't figure this bomb out soon, he never will.

A "Blind" screenwriter, seeing only in the spectrum of radio waves, must use his gift to escape apocalyptic worlds of his creation,

Screenwriter Evan Bard, who lost his sight in a pyrotechnics accident, keeps a secret from the world: After an experience with a drug called ibogaine, taken to cure an addiction that started with the pain meds he was given after the accident, he finds his eyes have been somehow re-tuned to see wavelengths outside the visual spectrum, including all the radio waves that carry the media he writes for.
The world through his new eyes is painted in a spectrum of indescribable colors , and these frequencies don't reflect off the solid objects around him the same way light does. Far from a cure to his handicap, and what he does see he reveals to no one, continuing to go through the motions of ordinary blindness, because he doubts anyone would take his claim seriously, and the unknowable colors in his world defy description.
But when Evan begins experiencing events and situations that resemble those of his screenplays, he soon discovers that the world around him never was what it appeared to be. Through his produced scripts, as seen by multitudes of viewers, a phenomenon known as morphic resonance has made these worlds no less real than the one we know.
But each world each walk a separate quantum path, where events unfold in infinitely diverse ways. And now he's caught in one where things have taken a turn for the apocalyptic. He must use his new eyes, and his ability to rewrite the world from the inside, which comes with the price of accelerated entropy - a corresponding increase in the chaos and havoc in the world. Every time he writes a change in his quest to restore order to all the worlds, and find a way back to his own, the already perilous one in which he is trapped will only get worse.
